Little tree this year.. The kids did not mind since all their presents made it here from Tallahassee and Panama City.. Fun to have the house filled with Daughter and her family and her mother and father in law and their two dogs.. Great time..
The cold slows me down.. But after they left I did 10 blocks of cats for a donation quilt for the Quazy Quilters in Melbourne Florida.. Package in the mail..
I am slowly washing linens and re organizing .. Will start putting Christmas away next week.. Will enjoy the lights for a few more days..
Will work on finishing the quilt for my mother.. and make a quicky walker bag for her new walker.. It's blue...

I can't sew with a sinus infection. My head feels like someone kicked. Refused a cortisone shot and just took the very expensive antibiotics. Hopefully I will be feeling better Christmas.. I need to get Mom's quilt finished in the next couple of days.. will post some pictures of the development of the block.. It got a little crazy of course since with the same block you and rotate the cut and wind up with at least 16 different positions and maybe more since I am not a math major.

Battling a cold.. Baked a wonderful loaf of bread.. The suns out and I must sit and quilt .. I will get mom's quilt done.. Quilt is one I made for a friend's son's baby girl which I had not photographed. It came here to visit with a wonderful little gal who is now 7 going on 8 months old. She takes it everywhere with her. Most I give I never see again. It was a treat. The loaf of bread was great. Since I felt so bad that I didn't even want to go to the store. DH brought home milk before going out of town to work in Atlanta.. I have always been a good SAC wife...

Okay , it is cold in Birmingham for this Florida Gal.. I've knit my gd a scarp and I finished an afghan. I've got a cold Thanks to my husbands office sharing cold party.. HEE Hee....
The leaves are all gone and I can watch the planes take off from the Bessemer Airport. small planes. There is a red tail hawk circling around looking for dinner.. Careful to keep little girl on her lease and near at all time..
Will be sewing a fleece jacket today .. if I can navigate to do that.. cold one minute ..warm the next..

Black and white table runner in production.. Sending it to a friend who wants to finish it for her son and daughter in law.. It was fun.. Awaiting the arrival of snow her in Alabama. Too funny. I haven't seen snow in years.. Working on Bonnie's North Carolina or maybe Carolina Mystery Quilt. Like I needed another project. But, it sure sounds like a lot of fun.. and I'm not a big fan of making triangle blocks. LOL... Good night to all. Hope this little snow flurry leaves enough so I can see it in the morning.
